TahoeYukons are the 5202 right?

Maybe these guys are working on a version of these for the 5202.

Possible to compete with the Nokyas?

Personally, although I buy most of my leds from velds, I would not trust such a high wattage bulb from them. Nokya is a very different company, in fact they are an OE manufacturer, with all the R&D and testing that it involves. On the other hand vleds are not, and they've had a lot of issues with their Triton bulbs. Leds are a tricky business producing more radiant heat than any other automotive light source, the risk of damage to components from thermal runaway due to improper design is high.

@ Autobond........ could you leave one bulb in to compare to the led?

Joe, yes there are a whole bunch of supposed 'high power' leds on ebay ... for them all I said in my last post applies x 100. It's not that they are all terrible, it's just that you never know what you are actually getting.

I can tell you that bulb looks nothing like the one I got. I will have them in tomorrow. I currently have HIDs in the fogs so I can't do a comparison. One of the HIDs is out and has melted that housing as well.
